How to do “shadow work,” interpret your dreams, and find your “self.”

Satya Doyle Byock is a psychotherapist and educator focused on the relationship with the unconscious. She is the director of The Salome Institute of Jungian Studies and the author of the book Quarterlife: The Search for Self in Early Adulthood. She writes weekly and hosts regular workshops on her Substack, Self & Society.

In this episode we talk about:

The vast impact of Carl Jung’s work
What separates Freud and Jung
The connection between Jung’s ideas and Buddhism
Practical exercises to help us resolve the tension between safety and meaning – between stability and taking a walk on the wild side
Dreamwork: what it is, why we should do it, and the “how to”
The perks of making the unconscious feel seen
